Geometry Wars 2 release moved up to next week

The upcoming release of Geometry Wars Retro Evolved 2 has been moved forward, …

Originally destined for an early August release, Bizarre Creations has announced that Geometry Wars Retro Evolved 2 will be coming to Xbox Live Arcade on July 30. The game will cost 800 Microsoft points (or $10).

The sequel to the 2005 XBLA hit will feature six different game modes, ranging from classics like Retro and Waves, to all new challenges, like Pacifism and King. Additionally, the game allows for four player multiplayer, both co-operative and competitive.

Given the success of the original, GWRE2 has a lot to live up to. Hopefully, the new game modes and enemy types will make this version just as addictive as the original.
